What is a Conjunction?
A conjunction is like glue. It helps things to stick together.
A conjunction joins words, phrases, and sentences, which are called clauses.

EX: I went skiing down the hill and past the trees.
What is a Conjunction?
Conjunctions can connect two clauses or sentences.
When two sentences are joined, a comma MUST be placed before the conjunction.
Ex. I played cards for awhile, but then I played chess.
Types of Conjunctions
One type of conjunction is the coordination conjunction.
-They connect things of equal value.
-They connect words, phrases, and clauses, which are sentences.
(This means that they would connect a noun with another noun or a prepositional phrase with another prepositional phrase.)
Types of Conjunctions
There are seven coordinating conjunctions: Use FANBOYS to remember.
F is for (for). A is for (and). N is for (nor). B is for (but). O is for (or). Y is for (yet). And S is for (so).
Types of Conjunction
Coordinating conjunctions affect the meaning of your sentence.
“And” connects things that are alike or joined together.
Ex. I want popcorn and pizza.
Types of Conjunctions
Coordinating conjunctions affect the meaning of your sentence.
“But” is used to connect things that are different or separated.
Ex. I want popcorn but not pizza.
Types of Conjunctions
Correlative Conjunctions are not single words. They work in pairs
THere are five pairs of correlative conjunctions:
both....and
whether....or
neither....nor
not only....but also
either....or
Examples of Correlative Conjunctions.
I saw "both" the Statue of Liberty "and" the Empire State Building.

What is an Interjection?
An interjection is something that interrupts a sentence.
It is something that also expresses your emotions like happiness, fear, anger, or pain.
Some examples of interjections are:
ouch, wow, uh oh, oh no, gosh, shhh
Punctuating Interjections
If an interjection is spoken calmly, simply put a comma after it and continue the sentence.
Ex. Shhh, the baby is sleeping.
Ex. Oh my, I dropped my pencil.
*pick one example to write down
Punctuating Interjections
If an interjection is spoken with more emotion it is followed by an exclamation point. The next word is then capitalized.
Ex. Ouch! I just cut my finger.
Ex. He scored the winning touchdown. Wow!
